Freedom, Loneliness or Something Else?
This came across my feed while I was trying to rest after lunch prep. It got me thinking. ... and I'm still thinking. THE BED It is hard to sleep and wake up beside his empty side of the bed. For more than a month, I kept sleeping on my side of the bed. It's an old spring mattress that needs turning over occasionally when it gets uncomfortable. I woke up one day realizing I might have the entire 60x80 inches of space to myself in the days, months, and years to come. We each have a very comfortable goose down and several regular pillows (including a little hug pillow that I cannot sleep without). I turned the bed over, changed the sheets, and rearranged the pillows. I remember tricking him into giving me his and I have both goose downs now . I placed them in the middle and the rest on the side. Is that freedom? But I still need to use my lavender balm each night so I can have uninterrupted sleep. Is that loneliness? THE WEEKLY MENU We used to have a system for me...
